“Time is passing. Yet, for the United States of America, there will be no forgetting September the 11th. We will remember every rescuer who died in honor. We will remember every family that lives in grief. We will remember the fire and ash, the last phone calls, the funerals of the children.” –President George W. Bush, November 11, 2001

You made a beautiful tile! Not only in USA will 9/11 be rememberd. Even here in Holland we do. I myself know exactly where I was wenn this horrible news came (I was at work, it was afternoon here) and wenn I got home I was in front of the TV all the time.
Let’s never forget, but let us live on in peace and (if we can) forgiveness.
